In Russia, developers have launched a project to create the Marathon-2.0 platform, the second generation of the Marathon-IoT satellite constellation. The project aims to provide simplified access to space technology for industry, agriculture and other customers. Nikita Matasov, head of the project group from the 'Space Systems and Rocketry' department at MAI, stated: 'Our goal is to make maximum simplified access to space for interested parties.' An image of the satellite has been developed using Midjourney, which is used for research purposes. The development of design documentation for creating experimental samples of the Marathon-2.0 platform with improved components and more efficient operation compared to its predecessor is underway.
